I’m pretty sure that yeast infection is from either when you have taken antibiotics for too long or too many, because they are killing off some of the normal bacteria that live down there and keep the growth of yeast in check. If there are not enough of the normal bacteria, then the yeast start to grow to numerous and cause and infection. Otherwise I wanna say that a change in pH can kill the bacteria down there too, but I can’t remember if the antibiotics are responsible for the change in pH or not.
From what I remember reading, (besides the itching) the discharge that comes from yeast infection should look kinda of like cottage cheese or like curdled milk. It is normal to have discharge that it clear or somewhat white as it acts as a self cleanser. If it is yeast infection you can use an over the counter product, like Monistat 7; but before you buy it ask the pharmacist that is in the store if they think that that is something you should use, otherwise if it isn’t yeast infection, they might be able to tell you what it is or recommend something to try to stop the itch. Also, you might question on if you have chiggers down there, I know a couple of people who have had them down there, but I really don’t know how they got rid of them. Hope that helped a little.
